Step 3: The Cyclone Shroud

The cyclone shroud is the force behind the vacuum cleaner's suction capabilities. Simply put, it helps in the optimization of the airflow. Use a soft brush to remove dust from the cyclone shroud. Unlike the rest of its parts, the cyclone shroud not is dipped in water.

Once you are done with the external parts, it is time to take on a bit complex disassemble to touch up the internal parts of your vacuum cleaner. While, the inner parts may seem to be less complex, Do not completely disassemble if you are not confident in re-assembling.

Step 4: The inner parts

The inner parts of the machine require dusting. Therefore, do not clean using a running water. Instead, use a dusting cloth to clean the reachable parts.

During the brushing, take note of the following; Dust can be irritating. So, if you are allergic or asthmatic, keep off the flying dust while using a can containing the compressed air in cleaning the inner parts.

While you allow the clean parts of the vacuum cleaner to dry up, Focus on the attachments. Both the brush and the Crevice tools come into contact with dirt. This makes your cleaning process incomplete if you don't touch up the attachments.

Their cleaning process requires:- Water-Detergents (soap) and, A dry cloth Wash the attachments without wiring in a soapy water rinse in cold running water Dry it with the clothe and, allow the parts to dry.

The attachments containing wiring should not be cleaned using water to avoid electric shock and short-circuiting. Simply brush off the dust. To this point, the Dyson V6 is clean and you are ready to reassemble the machine.

Ensure that all the parts beginning with the inner ones click into place. Then carefully fix the outer parts. You are set to let the vacuum cleaner do its duties and relieve you of the dragging.

In sum, regular cleaning means improved efficiency. The 20 minutes cleaning power that lacks in most of the vacuum cleaners are largely attributed to how well you clean it on regular basis. The maximum pressure that results during touch up throws dust and debris into the inner parts of your machine.
